<div><p>
I try to make a ginormous salad every day for lunch or dinner. Healthy salad recipes pack in a lot of nutrients for not a lot of calories—as long as you pay attention to the ingredients. It's easy to come up with healthy salad recipes in the summer when the market is overflowing with summer-ripe tomatoes, loads of veggies and a variety of salad greens. But dinner salads can be just as delicious and satisfying in the cooler months. I just adjust the mix for the season. This foolproof formula will have you tossing up healthy salad recipes whenever the mood strikes you!

<div><p>I love butternut squash. But since I commute an hour a day and have a 3-year-old to feed ASAP when walking in the door (plus a hangry husband), I try to keep weeknight dinners to 30 minutes, tops. Since it takes about 15 minutes to peel, seed and cut up a whole one, squash is usually designated to weekend duty at my house. </p>
<p>So discovering precut butternut squash was pretty awesome. And while convenience products can be more expensive, this one costs a mere $1.50 more to buy it already prepped, which is worth it to me and my weeknight sanity. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking_blog/how_to_shop_for_precut_butternut_squash_plus_4_fast_dinners#commentsHealthy Cooking BlogCarolyn MalcounDinnerWhat's in season Healthy CookingThu, 27 Aug 2015 16:30:20 +0000kurtschulitz286387 at http://www.eatingwell.comHow To: Make Gluten-Free Baked Goodshttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking/how_to_make_gluten_free_baked_goods

<div><!--<p><strong>What’s the simplest way to make baked goods gluten-free? </strong><br>
—D. Clifton, Durham, NC</p>-->
<p>Gluten—a combination of proteins found in wheat, rye and/or barley flour—gives structure and elasticity to baked goods. When you remove gluten, the support needed to lift and lighten the treats during baking is missing. The results can be dense, gummy or crumbly. The best gluten-free (GF) baked goods are made with a blend of GF flours, starches and often natural “gums,” such as xanthan gum, to replicate a traditional texture. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking/how_to_make_gluten_free_baked_goods#commentsHealthy Cooking BlogDietStacy FraserDiet, Nutrition & Health - Gluten Free DietThu, 27 Aug 2015 13:28:38 +0000kurtschulitz286386 at http://www.eatingwell.comSoup's On: Making Super-Flavorful Chicken Souphttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking_blog/soups_on_making_super_flavorful_chicken_soup

<div><p>We’ve simmered down our favorite technique for making homemade chicken soup into one easy-to-follow changeable chicken soup recipe. Every great pot starts with garlic, onions, bone-in chicken breast and low-sodium broth. After that, you add your favorite seasonings, vegetables and whole-grains and/or beans. Start with a classic combination of carrots, celery, peas and egg noodles or go for a different blend of vegetables and seasonings to create your new favorite chicken soup.</p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking_blog/soups_on_making_super_flavorful_chicken_soup#commentsHealthy Cooking BlogStacy FraserHealthy CookingWed, 26 Aug 2015 15:22:12 +0000kurtschulitz286381 at http://www.eatingwell.comThe Best Summer Wines for $10 (Or Less!)http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/wines_10_and_under

Now that I live in Vermont, I do have a few craft beers in my fridge, but what I really stockpile is wine. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/wines_10_and_under#commentsHealthy Cooking BlogBreana LaiBudget mealsDinnerEntertainingFood News & Origins - EatingWell MagazineMon, 29 Jun 2015 17:38:46 +0000kurtschulitz286042 at http://www.eatingwell.comA Make-Ahead Mexican Fiestahttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/a_make_ahead_mexican_fiesta

<div><p>Growing up in the South, I was served biscuits at breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. Each family and restaurant has their own specific way of making them. Some are skinny and tall, others flat and wide, and some come nestled together like Parker House rolls in cast-iron pans. Served with butter or jam, smothered with gravy or topped with ham and cheese or a piece of fried chicken, biscuits are as Southern as bourbon, collards and mac and cheese. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/the_difference_between_biscuits_and_scones_plus_6_healthy_recipes#commentsFood BlogHealthy Cooking BlogBreakfastBreana LaiCooking tipsDessertEntertainingRecipe MakeoverMultimedia & Tools - BlogsThu, 16 Apr 2015 15:47:40 +0000suzie.qu_559209285584 at http://www.eatingwell.com“Spiralized” Vegetable Noodles: Recipes to Up Your Pasta Game http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/spiralized_vegetable_noodles_recipes_to_up_your_pasta_game

<div><p>When I was tasked with testing vegetable noodle makers—aka “spiralizers”—I was hesitant. Growing up with a Chinese father, I primarily ate an Asian-inspired diet that included a lot of rice. But on special occasions, I had another option: noodles. And like most kids, when given the choice between rice and noodles, I’d always pick noodles. Noodles, in this case, meant ramen, lo mein, soba or egg and I loved them all—and still do. I was afraid that vegetable versions of my beloved noodles couldn’t come close to my enjoyment of the starchy originals. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/spiralized_vegetable_noodles_recipes_to_up_your_pasta_game#commentsFood BlogHealthy Cooking BlogBreana LaiCooking tipsDinnerKitchen toolsMultimedia & Tools - BlogsThu, 16 Apr 2015 14:12:52 +0000suzie.qu_559209285583 at http://www.eatingwell.comHow to Buy Thai Curry Paste, Plus Easy Recipes to Make with It http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/how_to_buy_thai_curry_paste_plus_easy_recipes_to_make_with_it

<div><p>We love a good Thai curry. And if you frequent Thai restaurants, you probably do too! You can put just about anything in a Thai curry, so we Test Kitchen cooks always keep curry paste on hand so we can whip up a curry with whatever we have hanging out in the fridge. </p>
<p>When we decided to use Thai curry paste in the March/April 2015 issue for our <em>Market Pick</em> column (that’s where we do four different takes on one ingredient), we in the Test Kitchen thought it would only be prudent to try as many curry pastes as we could get our hands on. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/food_blog/how_to_buy_thai_curry_paste_plus_easy_recipes_to_make_with_it#commentsFood BlogHealthy Cooking BlogCarolyn MalcounCooking tipsDinnerMultimedia & Tools - BlogsWed, 11 Mar 2015 14:36:27 +0000suzie.qu_559209285388 at http://www.eatingwell.com5 Restaurant Recipes You Can Make Healthier at Homehttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/healthy_cooking_blog/5_restaurant_recipes_you_can_make_healthier_at_home
